Definitions

  • a high frequency alternating current is supplied to the coil to generate heat while avoiding magnetization of the satellite.
  • the frequency required to generate sufficient heat with negligible average magnetic flux would be dependent upon the mass and responsiveness of the satellite.
  • the frequency may range from about 1 mHz to 1 KHz, with frequencies near 1 Hz being particularly useful.
  • the heater will be operated at a few watts depending on the rate at which the satellite radiates heat away into space.
  • multiple "heating circuits” may be disposed side-by-side on a same PCB board (e.g., same circuit card) to provide redundant set(s) of heating circuits.
  • this redundancy would prevent loss of heating capability upon failure of one or more sets of heating circuits.
  • both primary (main) and redundant circuits may be controlled by a single temperature sensor (e.g., sensor 188 a-f); however, for effective application, electrical current or power to the main and redundant circuit may be driven by independent or separate power sources so as to provide this a fail safe and failure operability capability.
  • a single temperature sensor e.g., sensor 188 a-f
  • step 212 determines if there is a need to warm satellite parts. If the answer is yes for step 212, then go to step 214 to run alternating current through the coil 16 for "a period of time" and go back to start step 218.
  • the amplitude of the current may be set to produce the desired heating power (typically a few watts) to warm the satellite parts.
  • the heating power may be based on the square of the RMS (root mean squared) current through the coil 16, which equals the heating power divided by the coil's resistance. If the answer is no for step 212, then turn off the coil 16 for "a period of time” and go back to start (step 218).
  • a controller 14 Based on data measurement by the sensor 188 (188a-f) from system bus A (e.g., communication interface), a controller 14 generates a control signal (e.g., power, current, voltage) that is communicated, for instance, through system bus B, to power one or more coils 160 (e.g., one or more multi-layer printed circuit board(s) 140 disposed on PCB(s) 130) situated about one or more locations (e.g., faces 1-6) of the mobile platform to adjust one or more environmental conditions on the mobile platform (e.g., magnetic flux, heating of components, and/or degaussing).
  • a control signal e.g., power, current, voltage
  • coils 160 e.g., one or more multi-layer printed circuit board(s) 140 disposed on PCB(s) 130
  • locations e.g., faces 1-6
  • each of the faces is de-attached from the mobile platform so as to illustrate block functionality.
